We crown thee all victorious And sing thy praise aloud. In loyalty we serve thee And strive to heed thy call, Mount Vernon, O, Mount Vernon! Through self to conquer all. You give unfailing kindness If trouble meets us here; You foster all our pleasures And make them seem more dear. Nor time, nor care, nor sorrow Can these fair days erase, But they, with each tomorrow Help us new tasks to face. Like Breath of Spring’s fresh morning That lifts the heart to song, When courage droops and wavers And paths seem gray and long, Will come thy dauntless spirit To help us on our way. Mount Vernon, O, Mount Vernon! Hold fast thy tender sway. The changing years may bring us Some longed for dream of bliss, Yet memory will cherish A sympathy we miss.

One Year White Team w Class History A. bewildered group of Juniors, we were shown to our rooms in September of ' 45- The setting we were ushered into resembled little the tales we had heard of college life. Shortly, however, the life in 4000, Rodman, and Tilden became very dear to us and even the classes above Garfinckels held a charm. Probation period started us off with a bang, with the vaudeville following after a sufficient period of time had elapsed. We chose “Lil’ Abner” as our theme, with Sallie Saunders as the hero and Ginger Crisp as Daisy Mae, and had much fun presenting it as well as achiev- ing a class unity we have kept throughout our two years here. After the presentation of the vaudeville, we elected Mary Lyle as our class president to guide us through the year. The Christmas dance was a great success. It was held in the largest of the classrooms, festively decorated, and we had our first taste of social life at Mount Vernon. The ingenuity contest was held the first week-end after Christmas vacation. In an attempt to learn our class flower, colors, and motto, the Seniors sacked our rooms in search of written information. We succeeded, however, in keeping them secret and proudly won the contest. We presented our colors, motto, and flower in the Spring, marching down the steps of Tilden, dressed in black, and singing our class song. The Spring dance at the Sulgrave Club was the highlight of out- social calendar. With young men from the service and nearby colleges, we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. Raffle-selling was an unpleasant job done well. The girls really went to work to raise money for the class fund to be left to the school at graduation. A circus theme was chosen for the Junior-Senior banquet. The Junior Class, as hostess, showed the Seniors a not-to-be-forgotten evening. Afterwards, we serenaded the Lloyds. Ol As a perfect culmination of a grand year, we gave a party at the new school for Mary Lyle on Thursday, May 30. We participated in the laying of the corner stone and graduation exercises. With tear-stained faces, we said good-bye to the Seniors and stepped up to take their place. In November of 1946 we returned to a new and very different Mount Vernon. Campus life replaced our small group living of the previous year. At an early class meeting. Dr. Storer was elected as our class sponsor and he has proved to be a great help in our class problems and ready to help us at all times. We opened a store in the Senior dorm and enjoyed working behind the counter, selling cokes and candy. Traditionally, we challenged the Juniors to an ingenuity contest the first week-end after Christmas vacation. Very sadly we lost the contest but were satisfied in that we guessed their colors and motto. Throughout the year we gave small informal parties on Friday and Saturday nights. The height of our social success was reached at the school dance in March. A formal dance on Friday night at the Sul- grave Club with a tea dance and buffet dinner on Saturday made a perfect week-end. In April, we presented a fashion show with clothes by Herman Becker, proving how many potential models there are in the class. Looking ahead, we have the Cap and Gown Ceremony, Class Night, the tree-planting ceremony, and graduation in June. Jean Morris Junior Class Florence R.

Student Council On March 24, 1947, an enlarged Student Council met to consider the drafting of a constitution that would meet the need of the growing school in its new home on Foxhall Road. Pre- viously, the Council was composed of the President of the Student Body, Marian Fleming; the Senior and Junior Class presidents, Jean Morris and Flor- ence Foerderer; a Day Student Repre- sentative, Mary Lyle; a House President Representative, Bette Legge; and a Secre- tary, chosen by the Council from the Junior Class, Virginia Bender, later re- placed by Nancy Ober. Mr. Lloyd, and the two class advisors, Dr. Storer and Miss Phillips, attended the weekly meetings and acted in an advisory ca- pacity. With the beginning of a new semes- ter, a plan was submitted to include in the Council the other House Presidents, Becky Converse, Ann Hill, Grace Downey, and Nancy Day; three addi- tional Senior Representatives, Julie All- britain, Leah Langford, and Carolyn Walker; and Frances Spruce, Day Stu- dent Representative.

Optima The Optima Club is Mount Vernon’s honor society composed of both Pre- paratory School and Junior College students. The requirements for eligi- bility in the club are the attainment of three out of four Presidents’ Lists in the College and the same number of Aca- demic Honor Rolls and Citizenship Lists in the Preparatory School. The club meets on the first Thursday of every month. For the past few years membership has been quite small but with the in- crease in the Junior College enrollment, Optima looks forward to a far larger membership. Optima is one of the few clubs with a membership in both branches of the school. When there are enough members in the club from both the Preparatory School and the Junior College, two separate clubs may possibly be organized. Meanwhile, the bond between the two schools is strengthened in Optima by a desire always to uphold the high- est academic standards as well as the best citizenship in Mount Vernon.

Lenil-A-Hand Lend-a-hand is the philanthropic or- ganization of Mount Vernon and is composed of both the Preparatory School and Junior College. It includes a representative from each of the four forms of the Preparatory School and from the Junior College, a Junior Class representative, Lois McLatchie, and a Senior Class representative, Marie-Paule Heymans, who is President. Miss Carter acts as sponsor and advisor to the group. Each student pledges an annual con- tribution which forms the treasury of this organization. During the year, Lend-A-Hand gives to the American Red Cross, the Community Chest, and other charities in the city. Realizing the conditions of war-torn Europe, Lend-A-Hand this year ex- tended its helping hand across the Atlantic. A small French boy, who suffered greatly during the war, has been able to attend school and obtain the necessary care through the con- tributions of our organization. { 44 Evelyn King, Ann Hill, Mary Alexander, Nancy Marshall, Whit Christian, President; Betty Boatwright, Nancy Wcyl, Mary Ann Robison. Social League The organization responsible for the spice in our school lives is our Social League. Its activities began at the opening of school when the new girls were guests at an informal get together in Hensley House. Christmas was soon upon us and the League sponsored a gay party at which Santa Claus with his huge sack of presents appeared. All through the year on occasional Saturday nights it has staged small functions such as bridge and bingo parties, with refreshments always in evidence. The highlight of the year was reached in March when on a Social League w ' eek-end, Friday, the seventh, a formal dance from nine until one was held at the Sulgrave Club. This was followed the next day by a tea-dance from four until seven, after which a buffet dinner was served at school. This sort of week-end is something new at Mount Vernon and the aim of the Social League is to start a program to continue through the years.

Glee Club One of the school’s favorite activi- ties this year has been the Glee Club. Although membership in this organiza- tion is optional, it is a large and grow- ing one. Mr. Torovsky is the director and is considered “tops” by all the girls. The Glee Club meets every week in the music room where it gathers to sing new numbers as well as old favor- ites. This club took part in the tradi- tional Christmas play. The annual Christmas program would not be the same if the strains of “Silent Night,” sung by the Glee Club, did not accom- pany the celebrat ion. At present, the club is preparing to present “Pinafore” sometime in the Spring and the school anticipates a performance all can be proud of. { 46 } First row: Joan Dunham, Whit Christian, Ann Robinson, President; Frances Spruce.

Little Theater With the expansion of other organi- zations on our new campus, the Little Theater felt it very important to try to reach a bigger and better goal than in previous years. For the first time in the school’s history, Little Theater is not a com- bined organization of the Preparatory School and Junior College. This year two plays have been pre- sented; at Christmas time, Dickens’ “Christmas Carol,’’ and in March, the four-act Chinese play, “Lady Precious Stream.” An Honor Society has been estab- lished whose membership is limited to ten girls who have shown the most co-operation and interest in the Little Theater. It is quite an honor to have a part in the birth of this club, “The Maskers, and it is felt bv all that the Little Theater will continue to be an active organization on the campus of Mount Vernon. { 47 } First rou Margaret Tribbv , Virginia Crisp, President; Miss Curry, Sponsor; Dorothy Legge.

This year, Mount Vernon has reorganized its ath- letic program and it has proved to play a splendid part in creating an atmos- phere proper and typical of the school. The Student Body was divided into the Yellow Team and the White Team, this being done by a drawing at the first school picnic in November. With the two teams competing, a contest was begun by a point system to last the duration of the school years at which time a trophy will be presented to the victorious team. Representatives to the Athletic Asso- ciation Council consist of three juniors, two seniors, one day student, the Presi- dent of the Student Body, Social League, and Athletic Association, and the two faculty members in charge, Miss Curry and Miss Bemis. The function of the Council is to schedule games with other colleges and plan the athletic program for the year.

The title was selected by the Class of 1946; a bell cote appears in the middle of the Commons on the architect’s plans of the campus and will signify the center of college life.

Carolyn collected literature and Sheila took charge of the art work. Near the deadline date, the pecking of typewriters echoed through- out the halls of Hensley House and the staff could be found busily duplicating and correcting. J50 Oj And By A piaster Cjregorio di tollo sat lifelessly in his old carved mahogany chair, watching the late afternoon sun pour in through the tiny garret windows to make line shadows across his lap and across the floor to his bed, where they came to an abrupt stop, unable to pene- trate the gathering darkness of the bed niche. Gregorio had never observed line shadows of the setting sun before today, as a matter of fact he had never seen his room in any detail at all; until this afternoon he had never noticed the tiny carved flowers on the edge of the narrow window sill, nor the worn oak crucifix that stood hidden in a crevice above the door. Gregorio knew that in his new life he would find innumerable new objects to look at. From morning until night his new occupations w ' ould be eating and sleeping, and looking, gazing, and staring at one detail after another, while his body from the waist down would remain senseless and dead. Gregorio rubbed his wrinkled forehead, sighed despairingly, and braced his gray head on his hand. He had a terrible problem to face, much worse than usual, and when lie had something big on his mind he always talked it over with himself. It made him feel better to hear the problem out, even though the walls were the only judges and could not make a decision. Gregorio, you are in a bad fix. You are sick, you have no money, what can you do? There is nothing, and you are an old man that can- not walk. Well, Gregorio? “Do you remember when you were young, when a master taught you how to use your hands to make flowers and figures out of wax? Could you do it again, Gregorio, would you try again to make figures?’’ Yes! Yes! he thought happily, he could try and use his hands again. He would mould shapes and figures, the ones that were old familiar ones, that he might never see again. He could have them all right beside him, so that he could look at these pieces of wax, and remember. The next day Senora Pagelli, the landlady, bought Gregorio fifty lira’s worth of blue wax to work with. His joy and gratitude spilled over within him, for now, with this lump of blue wax, there was blossoming a new life for Gregorio. He worked painstakingly and lovingly over his figures from dawn till, often, very late in the evening; putting on the last details by candlelight, each stroke of his blade being a caress as it was so care- fully done. These were happy days for the old man, and he thanked The Great Master every night for letting him live to do his work. After a few months had passed, Gregorio had sold a great many figures from the collection on his window sill. He had figures that would represent almost anyone in Venice. There were gondoliers that had passed below his window in their gondolas calling out their wares or greetings as they passed by; children whom he had seen playing in the streets; women with great flowery hats and market baskets; fish peddlers and singers, all as active to him on the window sill as they were in the streets below. Yet Gregorio was not satisfied. Within him was an overwhelming desire to do a figure that would stand out above all his collection. It worried him; he was not sure what the piece should be. One night he could not sleep because of his wondering. The candle beside his bed flickered in the night breeze, casting a faint ray across the room. Gregorio’s eye traveled with the flickering glow, touching on each illuminated thing. He saw It! Yes, it was the end of his search. He knew he had found the object of his “Masterpiece,” for there, in the niche above his door was the crucifix, with Christ looking down upon him. Gregorio was beside himself with excitement. He called Senora Pagelli and asked her to assist him to his chair. Then, taking the blue wax into his ancient hands he started to carve and mould the great profile of Christ. The old man worked all night. His head throbbed with the pain of fatigue, and, towards early morning his hands trembled and became weak; his breath came harder. At last it was finished. A head of Christ, looking up to the heavens with radiance and hope on his face. When Senora Pagelli came with Gregorio s breakfast, she found him in his chair; his head on his hands, looking happy in his pale stillness. Gregorio’s Christ was there in the morning sun on the window sill. The head was bowed, radiance was there no longer; in its place was grief. Diane A. Scripps, ' 48 ■A ' The Hunt T„ e dawn breaks, the riders assemble, their red coats cast a brilliant hue . . . The horses stand waiting, a stately display of grace, their proud heads held high . . . The master of the hunt blows his horn and the chase begins . . . O’er hill, o’er dale, the riders go, spurred on by the fresh Spring air and the feel of the wind upon their faces. The hounds lea d the merry chase; their barking grows more insistent. The fox is scented . . . The horses are urged onward and the chase ensues . . . The hounds grow eager, their barking louder; the horses are alert. The chase leads through a thicket ... a dense entanglement of brush, the hounds stop. From the underbrush runs a small red fox, hopelessly outnumbered by the hounds that follow close behind ... He is shrewd. He leads them across mountain and valley untilj,. he can run no farther. The hunt is over, the riders turn home- ward and the sun rises higher in the sky. Jean Morris, ’47 n P a { 54 } Old Fashioned The voices at the party had thickened only slightly. The general atmosphere was jovial, the glasses full and tinkly and no one present very much concerned with the sins of their souls beyond the fact that their spirits were high and the night hardly begun. They were young for the most part and Irish, with only one claiming ancestry to another land. This was Moon, the rotund little waiter, who was busily uncorking soda-water bottles in the corner. “Atta boy, Moon,” sang out Riley. Keep ’em coming! Verily thou art like an angel from Heaven delivering us from the strain and stress of the world by your donations to this festive occasion!” Cut the gufF, Riley, and hand me some of that ice.” Dan shoved Riley aside and reached for the bucket. Right, Colonel, and would ' st have a pretzel?” Riley apparently was not to be discouraged from his pleasantries by ill-tempered demands. To hell with your pretzels — there — now you’ve done it, you fool. There it goes on the rug and you’ll no doubt look on it as one and the same with the French lapping the stuff off the streets of Paris — or aren’t you acquainted with the good Mr. Dickens? Well, fill er up again, Moon. You’ve got the only level head here. Have we got enough do you think?” “Let’s give a toast to Mr. Moon,” shrilled an onlooker, here’s to Mr. Moon. We ll drink him a nice long toast — hey! That’s my glass, Paul — Paul, give it back you nasty thing. Here ' s to Mr. Moon !” Moon smiled tentatively over the bottle in his hand. Thank you, Miss. I appreciate it. You see, tomorrow is my birthday — my fifty- second. You young folks have a long road to travel yet. Yes, fifty- two years old tomorrow.” You haven ' t begun yet, Moon. C’mon fellow ' s — one, two, three — Happy Birthday to you, Happy Birthday to you — ,” and Moon found himself the center of a circle of good will. The song ended on a number of notes, and Riley, his face hot and radiating cheer, thrust his glass towards Moon and commanded, “Speech, good sir, a speech for the mob. Be still, people, we ll have a speech !” Hurray for Riley, trebled someone tinting his cheek with Pink Lightning. Moon’s going to give a speech. Shh, everyone, shh.’’ Moon himself obtained silence by raising his hand and then he surveyed them all solemnly for a second. Thank you, ladies and gentlemen, he began as if his audience, sprawled at random about the room, had suddenly been transported to a business conference. Thank you. I would like to tell you what my father told me thirty-two years ago when I was at the same place on the road that you people are. There was a muffled cheer that was quickly silenced and Moon went on. My Daddy was a fine man. He was a Christian — an old-fashioned Christian. Paul shifted his glance and glanced quickly at Riley. And he asked me to promise him one thing before he died so that he would know I would never make the mistake of denying my Lord. Paul ' s look to Riley was frankly nervous and Moon continued more intensely, gravely searching the faces of his audience as he talked. He asked me to never take a drink again because the good Lord couldn’t lead his children back it they were all the time honoring Satan. And you know, friends, that when only one goes to Satan’s side he takes all the rest with him and leaves God standing there alone. That’s what my Daddy told me and I’ve kept that promise to him for almost thirty-two years — that’s why I’m celebrating tomor- row, for my Daddy and the promise I made to him. No one moved as Moon reached for his tray and quietly left them. A few muttered remarks of Good Man you said it. Moon that’s right by God, were heard but that was all. Then Paul suddenly detached himself from the floor and winking deliberately at Riley who gravely emptied his glass in answer, walked over and started a lazy tune on the piano. The party went on. Nancy Ober, ' 48 The j ngc us Far away as eye can see Far beyond the shadowed hills Sinks the sun in one last glory Casting dusk on woods and rill Bidding all the peasantry, Man who sows and man who tills To put to rest his hoe and plow As the evening stills. As the night creeps o’er the fields There is heard a soft, sweet ringing From the church spire in the village Hark! The Angelus is singing! Singing songs that true faith yields; Filled with hope that God is bringing Freedom to the common folk Now on bended knee. No word is spoken, no prayer given Except in each man’s humble soul Friend and foe, there are none here! For all are one, in one great whole. With hand and heart these men have striven To reach the far-off, unknown goal; And to lift the burden, they have prayer When the work is done. At last the vesper bell is still; The field is robed in jet array. Heaven’s first star, its vigil keeps, To guard the earth till breaks the day; While peasant folk, at Nature’s will, Rise to foot and go their way In peaceful, thankful comradeship At end of day. O? Diane A. Scripps, ’48 The yAarch The North wind sweeps across the plains. Under a steel-grey skv. Three million comrades marching west. Have murder in their eye. Three million comrades pushing hard Revenge in every breast. “Revenge, revenge, revenge, they cry And march on toward the West. The peaceful lands where once they farmed Lie ravaged by the foe. The blood soaked earth of yesterday Is blinding white with snow. The snow is now a new born hope. That once had been their bane. “Press on, press on, they cannot rest For Spring will come again. Six million strong, they’re marching now. Their foe is in retreat. They reach their goal, but still press on. Revenge is much too sweet. Frances Dosset, ’48 { 58 } Just a tumble down shack. . .
